I painted the horizon and foreground. I could ordinarily get the whole painting done in one sitting but more often than not I only have a short window of time.
5×7″ canvas board.

Send in the Clouds (WIP1)
These clouds were a bit more complexed formation than the clouds I tend to emulate. I needed to add fresh paint to my palette, therefore it wasn’t as thick as the last painting. I need to start opening my palette a couple hours early for the fresh Golden Open Acrylics. Strange isn’t it! Although with the smaller clouds it wasn’t such a bad idea to have thinner paint. 5×7″ canvas board.
Beyond the Hill
Applied some of that thick gooey paint to finish up my painting. Incorporated the use of a palette knife. I want to do that more often. 5×7″ Canvas Board
Rolling Up the Carpet #10 (Final)
It’s nice to get some time to finally finish this one. I experimented with textures. 7×14″ gallery wrap canvas.
Rolling Up the Carpet #10 (WIP 1&2)
I was in the mood to do a panorama, which works well in the plains, and maybe I’ll use it for my facebook bkgd panel? 7×14″ gallery edge canvas.
Here is my sketch before I painted over it.
Rolling Up the Carpet #9 (WIP 2)
Today I put the foreground in on this painting. Slopped on as much paint as I could!
8×10″ stretched canvas with gallery edges.
Light Through Trees
Oil on Stretched Canvas 16″x20″
This is another painting I did with light through the trees. They are more translucent, and sparse. It’s challenging, I had to do it a couple times before I was satisfied. It’s all about the negitive space, the holes, trying not to create patterns, and making it random. I think it would be beneficial to do more of these in the near future.
